    The Poverty of My Reality

    Midsummer season on my wintry lips, these modern symptoms from antiquated sorrows.   The sunlight of acceptance, and midnight of isolation.   Youthful blushes and the wrinkles of experience, I have the free will to question my fate.   This wealth of imagination, and the poverty of my reality.   The...

    • Your imagination is a beautiful flowering garden, you are a wealthy man, dear Daniel! Your wording is awesome. You are a master in using the stylistic device of contrasts!

    • Daniel this is sublime in its dark vision. You have so much to say in your poem here and I for one am really liking what you wrote. Though dark it has a flow that is mesmerizing.

    Sunny Mania, Dark Depression

    I do not know anymore if you are dead or alive. Your moonlit face, no more can I recognize!   Your eyes are twin suns arisen, sometimes manic, sometimes depressed. Hibernating beneath your eyelids, over your nightscape a brilliant aurora!   As manic as the midnight sun, as depressed as...

      This is a similar themed piece to one I’ve been trying to write for ages.You’ve done a great job asking question about the decisions we make.
      We both know every action starts with a thought and that’s where the mind comes into play.If we’re fully awake and listening,our minds will see what the consequences of our actions will be.
      I for one try to remember “no harm to any sentient being”, not always easy do.
      I believe if a person’s intentions are good then, regardless of the law or societal norms, their actions are good.

      I’ve preached enough, when all I wanted to say was….great write.
      🙏
